QUEENSRŸCHE

Release Year: 2003
Artist Origin: USA
Style: dramatic progressive power heavy metal

heavy and alternative scene of Seattle has started not with Alice in Chains and even not with Sanctuary - in summer of 1981 five musicians have joined forces together for their heavy metal crusade, and one year past that they decided to try with a studio demo recording, so the four fundamental tracks of Queensrÿche were born, brimming with characteristic, dramatic, challenging sound, and progressive vibe brought by vocalist Geoff Tate, who has convincing voice and urge to try self-expression and individuality, so soon enough a word about new phenomenon was spread further than the United States, and the recording accomplished by the end of summer 1982, was printed on vinyl one year later; recent edition of kult EP comes with a remastered sound, extensive liner notes in the booklet and entire ten track live show as bonus, tracked in Tokyo on August 5th 1984, once released as a video tape
